Choosing an emulator for the DS

Post by 8-bit Legend »

Ive been looking into buying one of those microSD cards that are playable on ds's but I cant decide which to go with. Im interested in the CycloDS and the TTDS/DSTT but am open to other opinions. Which is best for overall ROM emulation?

here are two sitelinks regarding CycloDS and TTDS/DSTT

AceKard 2.1 is probably the best standard DS/DSlite cart in terms of manufacturer support and compatibility. All of them run the same emulators with the same varying ROM support.

Oops forgot that it isnt the card that does the emulation while I wrote that

CycloDS is widely considered the best card. I have not been too impressed with DSTT. That said, for the price it does nearly everything the Edge card does. It just isn't built as well.

actually the edge is just a clone of the Cyclo and doesnt have as many features. (no real time save, less frequent updates....)

that being said, i have an Edge and it works great
